Lamborghini

Radical styling and aggressive V12 performance are hallmarks of Italy’s other notorious supercar manufacturer. Founded in 1963 to compete against Ferrari, Lamborghini established the mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout for supercars with the iconic Miura in 1966. The space-age Countach with its scissor doors became an even larger icon, though such styling and performance came at a cost of comfort and quality. Following Audi’s acquisition of the company in 1998, Lamborghinis became a bit more user-friendly while retaining shock-value styling and uncompromising performance.
